The Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM) in Forensic Psychology

Abstract

The Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM) is described with particular emphasis directed towards the historical setting within which the TOMM was developed. This includes a review of the criteria for developing a memory malingering test, and the use of the empirically derived decision along with a discussion of the relative merits of empirically based vs. statistically based rules for detecting malingering. Data from a series of five experiments showing the sensitivity of the TOMM to feigned memory impairments, guidelines for interpretation of TOMM scores, and answers to frequently asked questions about the TOMM are provided. Finally, the ability of the TOMM to meet the Daubert guidelines is addressed.
